“Dreams of the Kings: A Jade Suit for Eternity,” a new exhibition, has just opened at China Institute Gallery. This debut US solo exhibition from Xuzhou Museum displays more than 100 newly-excavated artifacts of jade, terracotta soldiers, and bronzes from the Western Han dynasty (206 BCE-8 CE). Featuring the country’s best golden-threaded jade burial suit, the exhibition explores the long-enduring Chinese belief in eternal afterlife. Runs through November 12.
